Modern mx bikes remove and race without them even at national meetings

The rule is widely misunderstood, particularly among VMX-oriented scrutineers.

You should go and have a close read of the rule book, and take it with you to scrutiny before spending any money.
The good thing about telling the truth is that you don't have to remember what you said.

The front sprocket cover is only needed on those bikes with a large gap between the sprocket and swingarm pivot where you can fit your hand in. I think the rule book states the minimum distance between sprocket shaft and swingarm pivot where a cover is needed,
